Where’s hot for family holidays this summer?

Local travel consultant Hayley Frogley at Not Just Travel has sent many a family off on a memorable and enjoyable holiday that suited both their budget and their taste. Here she shares her ‘hot picks’ and inspiration to whet your appetite for sun, sea and sand with the family this summer.

Some places, like Greece, will always be perennial favourites, yet can still offer surprises if you know where to look. Take the island of Lefkada, with its spectacular backdrops, for example. Add in a sprinkle of thrill-seeking activities for all ages, such as kayaking, windsurfing and paddleboarding. Oh, and don’t forget the beach hotel with a great sea view, kids clubs, and nearby bars and restaurants. You’ve got all the ingredients you need for an unforgettable holiday in an up and coming location.

On the other hand, some destinations fall in and out of fashion. Turkey, for instance, has suffered with several years of political instability, putting holiday makers off visiting. Yet recently we’ve seen an upsurge in bookings. Things have settled down, much like the gentle waves of the Mediterranean sea viewed from a beachfront hotel. It’s a beautiful destination, and good value for money right now. Worth getting in before everyone else catches on again.

With so much choice, how do you decide where to go?

All this holiday planning is exciting, but organising the trip yourself can make you feel like taking a break! From the worry of trying to find the best deal to arranging airport pickups, insurance that covers everything, and all those other pre-sunbathing logistical hurdles, finding the right holiday can be time consuming and stressful.

Using a travel consultant with the knowledge, experience and access to exclusive offers, can help you to identify and secure the perfect holiday package for you and your family. We take the weight off your shoulders when it comes to planning your holiday, and know who to ask to get you those little extras that make it feel really special, like airport lounge passes – for example.

Let me find the best deal for you. So all you have to do is set the photo as your screensaver and countdown the days.

The best part of it is that there is absolutely no charge for my services. None at all. Just tell me what you’d like, and I will take care of the rest.
